MED'S PROFILE

Im happy I could help with sharing this ancient history ^^

author=LordBlueRouge
had a splash page at one point, with a beige background, and black and white original concept art on top of it as a logo

Im not sure who made it but I Think it was a drawing by "Illustrous"(or similar name). I think it was art from his own game in the makings. He was like a family member to Wishmoo and Q, very good at hacking and drawing as I recall.
Funny blury memory is that there were a guy called Strife(or similar) that was kind of like an antagonist of the RPG Maker websites, he had his own and there were alot of drama around Wishmoo and him. I always kept RPG Underground group out of drama so our website was neutral. Wishmoo was a law and order crusader.

The most awesome part of all RPG Underground community was that so many random talents joined in and shared their own work/resources. All from a guy who made original music in classic rpg style, to really great pixel sprite artwork by others.
In the start my main focus was to gather all and every piece of resource from the internet. The best RPG Maker graphics came from an asian guy/website that was pretty hard to find.
Later I ripped gfx from all kinds of games and spent soo much time putting them into the standard RPG Maker templates.
At last when there wasnt much more to be found I started creating sprites myself, characters and world gfx. One of my greatest was for my younger brothers South Park RPG. Unfortunately he didnt completed making that game tho.

After I left the RPG Maker stuff to GGZ I joined the staff of Graal Online and made GFX for their upcoming game Graal Kingdoms. Graal was like a Zelda style game, looked like Zelda on Super Nintendo alot.
(I just googled now and Graal can still be played it seems, thats pretty amazing: https://www.graalonline.com)

o yeah, if you have any artwork, files, games, even stories from your time on gaminggroundzero meD , please feel free to share them with us! I'm eternally grateful! It's really exciting to have you here!

EDIT: meD, is RPG Underground, still available somewhere in some form? please let me know.

I will be moving this spring and before packing I will go thru all of my never-use boxes. If I find the old HDDs somewhere I will have a look and tell you if all those old websites and the HUGE amount of resources(art, sprites, music, sounds etc) is still alive.

Edit: Another piece of the puzzle is that at the very end I had a website called MadHouse. I changed my alias to Jolt or Joltbolt, and only posted my own original RPG Maker gfx. So if you ever come across some gfx tagged Jolt/MadHouse/mED/RPG Underground, I would love to have a look :)
